Emergency Response

In times of natural disasters and mayhem, CAMP has been providing emergency relief and rehabilitation services across Pakistan. In the immediate aftermath of the October 2005 earthquake that ravaged Northern Pakistan and Kashmir, rising to the occasion with the rest of the nation, CAMP established its center in earthquake-affected areas of Khyber Pukhtunkhwa in district Bagh and Mansehra.

The IDP Crisis in Pakistan:

Pakistan saw one of the largest internal displacements in the summer of 2009; with over 2.3 million people fleeing their homes at the peak of the fighting in Malakand and surrounding areas. While most of these IDPs have returned, a large number IDPs from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) continue to flee the military operation in their agencies. According to reports from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), aid agencies are preparing for an influx of a possible further 150,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) in northwestern Pakistan in 2010.

Floods in Khyber Agency

In June of 2007, a flood hit the Khyber agency destroying houses, cattle and income generation activities. Areas from Landi Kotal to Ragi were the hardest struck affecting the population of the area and their livelihoods. In response to the massive relief requirements, CAMP set up two Primary Health Care Units with free medical assistance and medicines for the flood affected communities of Katta Khushta and Sultan Khel. Food and non-food items were also distributed among the worst hit communities. A total of 7000 individuals benefited from the centres, and the efforts of CAMP widened the beneficiary base of PHC service for the area.
